The high surface temperatures along with its dense atmosphere should have long ago eroded its surface features if the planet is 4 billion years old. The features that we see therefore represent a young planet. Richard A Kerr wrote in "Venus is looking too pristine" from Science magazine that "The Venus flybys have shown that planet to be young in the extreme. When they read the geological clock that tells them how old the Benusian surface is, they find a planet on the brink of adolescence."
Quote mining. The surface of Venus appears geologically young, because it is geologically young - despite the planet being much older. Quite unsurprising, since it's been recently very geologically active.
Quote:Neither can Mars be billions of years old, because in only a few thousand years, the type of harsh dust storms occuring on Mars would have eroded away its many craters and volcanoes. Yet,they're still there. This long term erosion should have also obliterated the strong color differences on the surface of Mars, but obviously this hasn't happened.
Show your work. Naked assertions are unconvincing.
Quote:Isotopes known as U-236 and TH-230 which are short-lived were found in lunar materials. If the moon were billions of years old, these isotopes would have long since decayed and would be absent from the samples. Since they were in relative abundence, it showed the age of the moon has to be measured in thousands, not billions of years.
U-236 and TH-230 are naturally replenished as they are both products of U-238 decay.
All of the rest of your claims are debunked elsewhere (talkorigins, evolutionwiki.org, etc). Try harder next time.
